  This review contains spoilers. Ugly Tomoko and beautiful Rika. It's not like being bullied a lot and then being reunited as an adult! It makes me think about beauty in many ways, such as the difficulties of being beautiful and the pain of being ugly. I want Tomoko's love to go well! On my first date with Kosaka-san, the “don't treat me sloppy because I'm ugly” scene was really nice! I'm glad we were able to have a proper discussion and start over on a date. I want Tomoko to be happy.

  自分だけの幸せ探しを教えてもらったような
  It's like they taught me how to find my own happiness
  試し読みしたら、全部見たくなって全巻購入。「この見た目の人がイケメンと…？！」なんて下品な興味から読み始めました。私自身、ものすごいブスでも、ものすごい美人でもない顔だから平凡に生きてこれたのかもしれない。顔なんてラッピングだと思っていたけれど、ラッピングが悪ければ中身は見てもらえない。綺麗にメイクしたら自信が沸いて、すっぴんだと下を向くのも事実。自分の幸せ探しって難しい。でも、探し方を教えてもらったような、素敵な漫画でした。

  After reading it for a trial, I wanted to watch them all, so I bought the whole volume. “This guy looks like a handsome guy...?!” I started reading it out of such vulgar interest. I myself have a face that is neither extremely ugly nor extremely beautiful, so I may have lived a normal life. I thought the face was wrapping, but if the wrapping was bad, people wouldn't be able to see what was inside. It's also true that if you put on clean makeup, you'll feel confident, and if you wear makeup, you'll look down. It's hard to find your own happiness. But it was a wonderful comic, as if they taught me how to search for it.

  皆がんばってる
  Everyone is doing their best
  いろいろな立場の登場人物の考え方やセリフがよく考えられています。見た目がテーマだけど、皆持って生まれた資質や環境の中で自分なりの正解を探す過程が大事なんだなと思える内容でした。私はアラカンで、若い子はチヤホヤされて良いな…と感じることもありますが、だからこそ大変なこともあったなと読んでいて思い出し、どちらにせよ時計の針は戻せないので今を楽しもうと思いました。悩みながら幸せになってほしい山井さん！

  The ideas and lines of the characters from various positions have been well thought out. The theme was about appearance, but the content made me think that the process of searching for one's own correct answers within the qualities and environment that everyone was born with is important. I'm Arakan, and there are times when I feel that it's okay for young children to be cheated on... but that's why I read and remember that there were difficult times, and I couldn't turn back the clock either way, so I thought I'd enjoy it now. I want Yamai-san to be happy while worrying!
